Trottole — from the Italian word for spinning top — is a tight, twisted spiral wrapped around a hollow core. The combination of the outer spiral and the inner tube means it captures sauce from every angle simultaneously. A less common shape that rewards the curious cook. Works beautifully with both chunky meat sauces and lighter cream or cheese preparations. Zelli is a family-owned pasta maker in Springdale, Arkansas, founded by Mitchell Owen and Angelina Bowen. Their bronze dies are custom-made in Italy — the rough, porous surface they leave on the pasta is what makes sauce cling rather than slide off.
